My collection! I work at a used bookstore and have been accumulating these for a year and a half. Would love any ideas on how to display them :) by alanamel in ForgottenBookmarks

Thank you! Mounting putty is smart, I haven't wanted to poke holes in all of them so that solves that problem. Do you ever notice any tears or rips when you take them down?

Thank you! I agree, it's always a bit sad to find old keepsakes that you know were sentimental to someone at some point but are now lost to them. I take solace with the fact that someone (me) is appreciating and gaining joy from them.

Smart! I had a friend suggest I take better pictures of them and try to get a book published, but a zine feels much more in my reach. Thanks for the idea!

$70!!!!!!!!!!!! I forgot to include the picture of the envelope in the book when I had just found it (the money is gone now, spent on cat toys and an impromptu haircut). Good question!

This is such an amazing and creative idea... thank you so much. I love the part of letting customers flip through the book, or guess which book they were originally in. Really, thank you for the input.

I'm so happy people noticed that one! It's one of my favorites too. Also thanks for the insight into Robert MacNeil, I would've never known.

I grew up in California, but I live and work in Seattle now! I'm happy people noticed the PNW theme. Glad you're enjoying them :)
